Function: Numberify()

Converts to a JS number. Lossy above 2^53 — Number.MAXSAFEINTEGER — and it does NOT throw: values are silently rounded.

Numberify(item): number

Defined in: packages/bitbadgesjs-sdk/src/common/string-numbers.ts:34

Converts to a JS number. Lossy above 2^53 — Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER — and it does NOT throw: values are silently rounded.

Values that legitimately exceed 2^53 on BitBadges include uint64 range sentinels (18446744073709551615), post-v34 hash-derived account numbers, and nanosecond unordered-tx sequence nonces (BB-34). Never use Numberify on data that must round-trip exactly — especially accountNumber and sequence, which feed signing. Use BigIntify, Stringify, or NumberifyIfPossible (which falls back to a string) instead.

Parameters

NumberType

number
